20th WINTER COURSE
"Terrorism, Counterterrorism, and Human Rights"

ANDALO (TRENTO) - ITALY
14-21 JANUARY 2007

ISODARCO has organized residential courses on global security since 1966
primarily in Italy but also in China, Germany and Jordan with the generous
support of private foundations and International and National Institutions
and Organizations. The courses are intended for those who would like to
play a more active and technically competent role in the field of
international conflicts as well as those who already have a professional
interest and experience in this field. The courses are intensive,
interactive and interdisciplinary in focus. The subject matters span not
only the technical and scientific dimensions of these problems but also
their sociological and political implications.
This will be the seventh time an Isodarco course will examine the problem
of non-state violence. Courses on this topic were organized in 1974 and
1978 when only a few specialists were concerned with the issues of
non-state or sub-state violence. Now, after the dramatic events of the
years 2001 and 2002, Isodarco has returned to the discussion of these
problems devoting to them the last four winter courses.
